I'm not sure what the plastic shroud like cover between the intake and area in front of the radiator is called. But I cut a hole in mine for my K&N to draw cooler air in. I am at a point where I'd rather not be getting all the crud lodged in it and having to clean it so much. Where can I get a new one of these plastic pieces? And what is it actually called so I can search?

This guy has a several c5's that he is parting out. This add isn't for the part you are looking for but he will have what you are looking for.

You could get in touch with either Marc at VetteNuts or Corvette Recycling. Both sell used parts and I'd bet they have that shroud.
